Summary of BenefitsWorkers' compensation is insurance that provides cash benefits and/or medical care for workers who are injured or become ill as a direct result of their job. STEL pays for this insurance. Weekly cash benefits and medical care are paid by the State Insurance Fund, STEL's insurance carrier, as directed by the Workers' Compensation Board. The Workers' Compensation Board is a state agency that processes the claims. If Board intervention is necessary, it will determine whether that insurer will reimburse for cash benefits and/or medical care, and the amounts payable.
